The spokesman said the Chi- nese are believed to have suf- fered much heavier casualties in driving into northeastern and northwestern India. The spokesman reported the| loss of Demchok in southern Ladakh where the Chinese had attacked last Saturday. Nehru asked U.S. ambassador John Kenneth Galbraith for the weapons. A U.S. Embassy spokesman said Galbraith indi- cated they are coming. Despite setbacks India defin- itely refused to accept offers of mediation of the undeclared war with China. An external affairs ministry spokesman said: "No self-respecting ountry, and certainly not India with her love of freedom, can submit to Chinese aggression whatever may be the consequences nor can India allow China's occupa- tion of Indian territory to be used as a bargaining counter for dictating to India = settlement of differences. regarding the boundary on China's terms." draw "at least to where they were prior to Sept. 8'" when the intrusion into northeast began. A military spokesman said there was only a sporadic ex- |change of fire in northeast but Demchok and nearby Jara Pass were abandoned in Ladakh. The appeal to the United States for weapons followed re- ceipt here of two planeloads of British arms and ammunition. Nehru sought help as a ma- jor battle loomed for a vital 244- mile Himalayan pass on the route to India's densely popu- lated Assam Plains.
